    Hiking

    An idyllic spot in the sand pit. The hiker enjoys the silence and is inclined to plan a break here. But it can soon be over with the calm, at least on the working days of the week: A recycling company is planning to install a shredder on the opposite bank to shred the old ballast stored by the Federal Railways. Tip for the hiker: plan a weekend!
